Tuba Christmas 2012

What do you get when you take a stage, fill it with 4-500 hundred low brass musicians that have never played together before and give them two hours to practice? You get the awesomeness that is Tuba Christmas.

Yesterday at The University of Akron's EJ Thomas Hall, the yearly event was held again but this time, our daughter joined our friend Craig in the festivities on stage. Molly participates in the local schools music program and normally plays the trumpet. But she found that using a euphonium, she can use the same music that she is used to. Plus having a good friend helping her through the motions made it a great time for her too.

It's always a wonderful experience to hear these musicians come together from all over to give the region a musical Christmas card.
